Two-loop effective potential for the minimal supersymmetric standard model
نویسنده
چکیده
I compute the complete two-loop effective potential for the minimal supersymmetric standard model in the Landau gauge. This enables an accurate determination of the minimization conditions for the vacuum expectation values of the Higgs fields. Checks on the result follow from supersymmetric limits and from renormalization-scale invariance. The renormalization group equations for the field-independent vacuum energy and the vacuum expectation values are also presented. I provide numerical examples showing the improved accuracy and scale dependence obtained with the full two-loop effective potential.

Higgs-Boson Pole Masses in the MSSM with Explicit CP Violation
Extending previous results obtained in the effective-potential approach, we derive analytic expressions for the pole masses of the charged and neutral Higgs bosons in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) with explicit CP violation. In such a minimal supersymmetric model, the CP invariance of the Higgs potential is explicitly broken by quantum effects dominated by third-generation sq...
متن کاملConstraints on the Higgs Boson Properties from the Effective Potential
We review the constraints on Higgs boson properties from effective potential methods. In the Standard Model, the requirement of stability (or metastability) of the standard electroweak minimum puts an upper bound on the scale of new physics as a function of the Higgs mass. This upper bound is below the Planck scale if the Higgs weights < ∼ 130 GeV. In supersymmetric extensions of the Standard M...
متن کاملTwo-loop effective potential for a general renormalizable theory and softly broken supersymmetry
I compute the two-loop effective potential in the Landau gauge for a general renormalizable field theory in four dimensions. Results are presented for the MS renormalization scheme based on dimensional regularization, and for the DR and DR ′ schemes based on regularization by dimensional reduction. The last of these is appropriate for models with softly broken supersymmetry, such as the Minimal...
متن کاملParameter Bounds in the Supersymmetric Standard Model from Charge/Color Breaking Vacua
We calculate limits on the trilinear soft-breaking parameter, At, in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard model by requiring the absence of nonzero top squark vacuum expectation values. Assuming a low tan β, which implies a large top Yukawa coupling, we also calculate one-loop corrections to the effective potential. The resulting numerical calculations of the charge/color breaking limits are pre...
متن کاملImproved Higgs mass stability bound in the Standard Model and implications for Supersymmetry ∗
We reexamine the lower bound on the mass of the Higgs boson, M H , from Standard Model vacuum stability including next-to-leading-log radiative corrections. This amounts to work with the full one-loop effective potential, V (φ), improved by two-loop RGE, and allows to keep control of the scale invariance of V in a wide range of the φ-field. Our results show that the bound is O (10 GeV) less str...
